Saving uploaded file in specific location

I have the following code which handles files upload on the server. But how to save the file to a specific location on the server

import gwtupload.server.UploadAction;
import gwtupload.server.exceptions.UploadActionException;

import org.apache.commons.fileupload.FileItem;

import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.Hashtable;
import java.util.List;

import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;




/**
 * This is an example of how to use UploadAction class.
 *  
 * This servlet saves all received files in a temporary folder, 
 * and deletes them when the user sends a remove request.

You should use File#createTempFile() which takes a directory instead.

File file = File.createTempFile("upload-", ".bin", new File("/path/to/your/uploads"));
item.write(file);

Or if you actually want to move the temp file to another location afterwards, use File#renameTo().

File destination = new File("/path/to/your/uploads", file.getName());
file.renameTo(destination);

---

In your java application, you can create file with giving specific path.

Like; "new File("c:/files/filename)" etc.
